Chinatown, Manhattan · restaurant
A Cantonese restaurant with velvet booths, turquoise lanterns, and a floor-to-ceiling phoenix mural. Italian technique quietly reshapes the menu—olive youtiao, steak tartare beside XO duck breast, lobster sticky rice, chili crab noodles. The baby bok choy dragon salad with pecorino and macadamia nuts is either a genuine discovery or a coincidence nobody's questioning.
